Netting four goals in 32 games in the Dutch second division with FC Oss last season but is now without a club, meaning that the journeyman youngster will be on the move again this summer with Leeds a potential destination.

“I can already sign but I want to get to know the club and the coach (Thomas Christiansen) first. That’s why I’m going to train with them a few times first,” said the former Dutch Under-17 international, who has also represented Bosnia and Herzegovina at youth level.

Why Lazic would need to be persuaded to kick-start his career at Leeds is anyone’s guess. The Whites represent an excellent opportunity for a player who hasn’t lived up to expectations since winning the prestigious NextGen series with Ajax in 2012 alongside Everton new boy Davy Klaassen and former Middlesbrough winger Viktor Fischer.

Klaassen captained Ajax last season as they lost the Europa League final to Manchester United
